About this converter
OLM and Toho list an official theatrical runtime for every Pokemon film, repeated by the BBFC in classification listings. First generation features run 71 to 93 minutes, while later epics push near 100. Mewtwo Strikes Back runs 75 minutes and the Arceus film 94. This table keeps the first twelve theatrical features with credits included, as published by OLM, Toho and the BBFC.
How to use it
Pick two entries and a unit in the top row. The three boxes below stay linked. Change any box and the other two update. Try Mewtwo Strikes Back against the Arceus film to feel the 19 minute gap. Switch to hours for a friendlier reading of long films.
Runtimes cover the feature with credits only. Pikachu shorts that played before early films, such as Pikachu Vacation, sit outside these totals. Television specials and the 2017 remake are left out to keep one theatrical line. One or two minutes of drift between sources reflects credit roll rounding. The sea temple film at 105 minutes tops the table, with Lucario next at 100.
FAQ
Which Pokemon film here is the longest?
Temple of the Sea at 105 minutes. Lucario follows at 100 and Deoxys at 98.
Which is the shortest?
Heroes Latios and Latias at 71 minutes. Early features stayed lean before worlds grew.
Do these runtimes include the Pikachu shorts?

Why is the 2019 remake missing?
Because it retells the first story with new animation. This table keeps the original 1998 feature.
